Zusammenfassung

Working for Ford (1984) describes what it is like to work in a car factory, often in the words of the workers themselves. It also reveals the process by which large-scale industries seek to overcome industrial conflict and the way in which unions, shop-floor workers and shop stewards express their political and economic aspirations.
